21st
century is a century of technology.
Whether one likes it or not, one is forced
to live with technology. When you really look at all these developments, you
will no doubt agree that no matter what one say, these technology has made life
much more easier. And what makes our life easy? Sensors of course. You will see
sensor in every electronic gadget. From a simple toy to spacecraft, everything
works with sensors. A specially devised item which guides the particular action
of the gadget. From toy to spacecraft, these sensors will identify the course
of action for the specific purpose. The only setback is, that sensor will only
sense and relay the message and if the program set on the device fails to
recognize this message then there will be malfunction of the gadget. A simple
toy can breakdown or a spacecraft can burn or blow out in space. We all have
witnessed such mishaps every now and then.
God has also
installed ten major sensors in our body. These sensors are known as senses. Our
senses has the same function as that of sensors. The difference between sensors
and senses are, with gadgets, sensors are programmed to identify certain objects
or actions whereas in case of human being, one has to develop one’s own program
for senses. One has to identify the good and bad action on our own.
This is why
it is important to control senses. These senses identify everything that comes
within their range and relay the message to our brain. It is for us (our brain)
to isolate genuine message to that of spam messages or threat and if the brain
fails to identify these messages then we get in to trouble.
In my earlier post
on Rama Ekadashi, I have mentioned about senses and one of my reader wanted to
know about these senses. Well, as mentioned in my earlier post, a human being
has ten senses of which five are intellect senses. Other five senses are action
senses. These senses will act depending on the messages relayed by our brain to
them. So in simple terms our intellect senses identify object and relay it to
our brain. And our brain relay message to our action senses to take appropriate
action accordingly. This is how our body system works.
Ideally one should be in
control over one’s mind but in most cases mind takes total control and opt for
wrong things in life which will eventually put oneself in physical, mental,
social and legal problems in life.
In my next
post I will be elaborating on these senses and how to control them.
